About this restaurant

  • Charming
  • Good for groups
  • Great for happy hour
Tupelo Honey is a revival of Southern food and traditions rooted in the Carolina Mountains we call home. Steps from historic Denver Union Station, we craft brunches, lunches and suppers that bring family and friends around the table and allow for conversations and cocktails to linger longer than usual. Always scratch-made, always responsibly-soured, and always Southern.

Reservations are recommended, and we will accommodate walk-ins where possible. All guests with pets must be sat outside. Our Patio is north-facing and weather dependent, please call the restaurant ahead of time to inquire whether the patio is open or not.

    We had an amazing Easter brunch at Tupelo Honey! I brought my family who was visiting from out of town — a group of 11 — and everything was fantastic. The drinks were delicious and the food really hit the spot. The staff was kind, thoughtful, and incredibly attentive, making the experience even better. Highly recommend for a special gathering or any time you want a great meal and atmosphere.

    The best sweet tea I've had in a long time. Had the fried green tomatoes and the chicken and waffles. Left stuffed because the food was so good, had to clean my plate.

    We had a very good time. The restaurant was very clean. The service was good and the food was good as well. The brunch menu is the highlight of this restaurant so that’s what I would advise going get the most bang for your buck.

    Was excited to go to this location after frequenting the one in Knoxville. The menu seemed pared down and had a bar food vibe.
    Tupelo Honey - DenverResponded on April 7, 2025
    Hello Anne, Thank you providing us with honest feedback about your recent visit. We are sorry to hear you felt our vibe was more of a bar atmosphere, we strive to offer a welcoming and comfortable "vibe" for all of our guests and are upset we didn't meet that mark for you this time. Our menu here in Denver, if you include our secret menu as well as our "Mile High Bites" menu, is actually significantly larger than our Knoxville location and we are sure we could find you something that that you would absolutely love. If willing, we would love to welcome you back in for an entree on us. I went ahead and added this to your OT profile, so whenever you book with us again here in Denver, this token of gratitude will automatically be applied. Thanks again, Tupelo Honey- Denver
